Sometimes, we need not look far to find hidden gems in our neighbourhoods — some of these stores might just be located at one of our nearby void decks.
On Thursday (18 Feb), a netizen shared a convenience store he chanced upon at Bukit Gombak.
While the store – ST Gifts – looked just like any other heartland store, he said their items ranging from carpets, towels, and even baking good are priced very affordably.
Plus, the store is located directly opposite Bukit Gombak MRT, meaning it’s real convenient for customers to visit.
Most Singaporeans grew up in neighbourhoods with void-deck convenience stores that sell the most random collection of everything we could possibly need.
In the West of Singapore lies one such store — ST Gifts.
Not only is the store well-stocked with household items, but they’re also selling them for cheap too.
Some products that might pique the interest of home bakers include the wide selection of baking trays and moulds that are available in all shapes and sizes.
The best part? These trays are retailing from as cheap as $4.
They also have other baking basics like weighing scales and cooling racks that might come in handy if you’re still in the CNY baking mood.
ST Gifts also sells doormats in all kinds of designs for just $2.
For just a few more dollars, customers can even pick doormats with more elaborate designs.
Basic schooling necessities like school bags and calculators are also available, for the ‘lil ones who need new gadgets and equipment for the new year.
You can check out more of what’s available here.
You might not think to rifle through the store when passing by, but the convenience store certainly has more than just what meets the eye.
So if you live nearby and need some household items, be sure to check it out.
Here’s how to get there:
ST Gifts
Address: 372 Bukit Batok Street 31, Singapore 650372 (next to Swee Heng Bakery)
